Tone arm and Cartridge Settings & Set Up
The major cause of problems in sound and skipping on the vinyl is the lack of proper set up of the needle and turntable adjustments. The needle is designed to operate at a specific angle to the vinyl. The commonly used Technics SL-1200 turntable has several adjustments to correctly position the needle to the vinyl.
